Love the styling, love the PV cinematography and scenario, just wish the song was heavier but like like ChrNo said, this was already a lot of Buono's territory so it's better for them not to get too grungy. Song grew on me over the course of the PV, it's like Rival meets Yuujou Junjou meets speed.  :lol:

And the vocals!  :wub: You could hear the song was straining for them, but none of the girls let me down and I'm loving Risako's deep voice more and more every day. She's the best part of ONLY YOU!

Looks like H!P only has the resources to make 1.5 of their groups good at a time and right now it's Berryz and S/mileage.  :lol:  :cow:

Plus way back in the day when I first got into Berryz I started doing a Berryz Rock Band fanart(never finished), and then they go and do it!  :wub:

To be honest, this is first Berryz single for a long time that I don't like. I have tried and tried to listen and like it but it just don't work <.<

Well their 22nd single's first day rank was #4 with less than 10,000 sold. So it's not that good. Although they did get #3 for the week with 25K sold.

Actual first week sales
Daily ranking                week#  total sales
-- *5 *8 *8 *5 12 12  **6    13,958    10/07/14(水) Berryz工房「本気ボンバー!!」

It's fairly depressing me.
Last single with similar first week sales was Koi no Jubaku with 12,897
Last single with first week sales below 20k was VERY BEAUTY with 16,625

The only positive thing about the numbers is that Koi no Jubaku and VERY BEAUTY belong to the top quality songs in my opinion.

The reason for those low sales might be due to the release event that is attached to it.
Originally the CD contains a code for the Lottery to an event where Berryz appear together with T-Pistonz+KMC.
The event however aims at children, at least the first round if I understand it correctly. Because it's more like an event for the Anime.
For whatever reason they also don't even have a handshake part like it's normal for release events.

So probably that reduced the number people bought copies to win a ticket at the lottery = low sales.
They seem to have realized that now and announced an additional handshake event.
From 7/22 (tomorrow) 11:00am on they will sell the regular edition with handshake event tickets somewhere (don't get the place).
The event will take place on the same day 7/22 and 7/23 after a performance of Berryz at Fuji-TV.
Since those CDs are extra press (not first press anymore) they will of course not contain a code for the event with T-Pistonz etc.

As expected, Berryz up in the charts again.

Daily oricon position: #7

They might drop out of charts soon again since the handshake event CDs are only sold at one place for a day I think.

EDIT:
along with the other handshake event on 7/27 (see beri thread)
They're also giving out signed (by one member) maji bomber poster to people who buy the single at the Hello! Project concert in Kobe on the 7/24 and 7/25
